On Weibo, China's equivalent of Twitter, social media users expressed their alarm at such a sight.

‘Such wedding antics should be penalised!' one wrote, while another said, ‘Every bridesmaid should bring a body guard’

Popular Chinese news portal Sina attracted the following comments: ‘I would leave the wedding right away if I were the bridesmaid'; ‘He’s just taking the advantage’ and, ‘It has shown how outdated the local cultures are’.

A similar video emerged last year of a bridesmaid being molested in front of a jeering crowd at a Chinese wedding.

In the video, a man was seen putting his hand down a bridesmaid's dress.

Initially, the unidentified woman seemed amused while the crowd urged the man to 'Grope, grope grope' but she soon became embarrassed. Members of the crowd were even seen pulling her hands away to give the man more access.

The bridesmaid tried to hide her face behind her phone and later removed the man's hands.

This chain of events was allegedly a wedding party game where the man was 'looking for peanuts', which had fallen down the bridesmaid's dress.

However, this and similar antics are far from rare in certain parts of China.

Although the games are meant to add cheer and drive away evil spirits, they have become increasingly sexually explicit, with cases where victims are being stripped completely bare.

While those involved in the videos seem to find the incidents hilarious, Chinese web users have called for the pranks to be abandoned.
